Are you getting enough rest, and are you getting the right kind of rest?  In this week's episode, Pastor Ian Simkins talks about the importance of rest and how rest is much more than sitting on the couch after a long day at work; it's about how you spend your time when you aren't resting. You'll learn what God says about rest and why you need time for Sabbath.  This episode aligns so well with the PIES of Attraction and becoming the best version of you that you can be.
